As the regular soccer season wraps up, it's great to see North Epping Rangers Sports Club go from strength to strength. One of the projects this year was to replace the goals for the mini teams. Four new sets of solidly built goals, on wheels for easy maneuverability, will now be used at Ron Payne and North Epping Ovals. Making life easy for volunteers, and great for their younger players!

This was funded through a grant from our community program - helping local sport thrive in our district.

Tucked away towards Dundas is an amazing Centre caring for disabled children and young adults. Allowah provides a range of services, including accommodation, to those that most need help. That's why, when they approached the bank for funding for transport, we were happy to assist.
Their new vehicle is specially fitted for wheelchairs and enables the Centre to take residents out for education and community activities.
This is the second car this year receiving funding after a similar project with Their vehicle transports elderly residents to essential appointments.

Celebrations were held today to mark the 70th Anniversary of the Epping Senior Citizens Club with over 200 current members gathering to mark the milestone.

The Club, which is based in the area beneath Epping Library, offers a wide variety of activities for older residents - but most importantly the chance to meet and socialise. Highlighted at the lunch was wonderful Tai Chi, line dancing, singing and more. And the Lion Dancers were a big hit!

Community Bank Epping were delighted to support the event through production of a history of the club.

Have you ever wondered what the green bins by the North Epping shops are for? Here locals can recycle metal items, into bins provided by Move It On.

That's where the North Epping Men's Shed comes in - they collect and sort the donations. But they approached Community Bank Epping earlier this year for funding - they needed a way of taking the material to specialised recyclers.

A trailer has now been added to the Shed - and another great community initiative is in action. The bank loves when our funding helps projects like this get going.
